Hot Celebrity Mamas & Weight Loss Secrets: Miranda, Jessica, Beyonce and More [PHOTOS]
Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom had baby Flynn on January 6, 2011. A spitting image of his father, Flynn is possibly even more adorable than his mama. Mama Miranda Kerr got her skinny back in just 6 months - she attributed her super fast weight loss to yoga, light jogging, and a diet of steamed vegetables, fresh fruit, and fish.
Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck have had a spate of babies - well, three to be exact - daughters Violet Anne Affleck (born December 1, 2005) and Seraphina Rose Elizabeth Affleck (born January 6, 2009) and son Samuel Garner Affleck (born February 27, 2012). And news is that she might be pregnant again! She attributes her baby weight losses to her trainer Valerie Waters with whom she trains using simple workouts - no gym.
Jessica Alba and Cash Warren have two gorgeous baby girls: Honor Marie Warren (born 2008) and Haven Garner Warren (born 2011) and her weight loss story - along with the usual healthy eating and working out also involved wearing a double corset for three months, day in and day out. Admittedly painful, Jessica also said that the corset was not for everybody - and that it was a bit brutal.
Shakira and footballer Gerard Pique had baby Milan in January this year - and the adorable little one does share his mother's good looks. She also was vocal about her fears of net getting her sexy figure back after having her baby - her post baby pics seemed to have allayed all her fears and she attributes her being in shape to Zumba which she did almost all through her pregnancy.
Natalie Portman and her ballet-dancer hubby Benjamin Millepied have a son named Aleph Portman-Millepied, born in June 2011. Her baby weight loss is attributed to her being a vegetarian, hitting the gym but also believing that life is about doing what you love. Natalie is stated to have said that she like pleasures and joy. She'd never get to the point where she'd starve or injure herself - when she's hungry, she eats something delicious, but healthy.
Music stars Beyonce and Jay-Z had Blue Ivy in July 2012 and Beyonce's weight loss happened with sheer grit and hard work. She did the treadmill a lot since she loves to run and apparently was on a lettuce diet to fight those stubborn pounds. It wasn't easy for her as she admitted openly, and 80 percent of the weight loss happened due to cutting back on food. While Beyonce regrets the pressure she put on herself to lose weight quickly, the cardio-dance workouts she did made it a bit happier for her.
Adriana Lima and her Serbian-footballer hubby Marko Jaric have two daughters Valentine (born 2009) and Sienna (born 2012). Her baby weight loss was a tad more grueling - for she had a show to do! So she had grueling boxing session twice a day for six hours and was on protein-heavy liquids-only diet for nine days in the run-up to the finale and drinks a gallon of water each day. Under criticism for her really extreme dieting, Adriana later dismissed this as a misunderstanding and made it a point to flash her Starbucks coffee and cake!
